I am impressed by the mod overall.
I've been playing Radious and other TW mods and like the fixes.
I like that I can recruit monks without dojos.

One BIG complaint:
What happened to the garrisons?
I only see significant garrisons in the citadels and 1 level lower.

In my game, many of the major clans have been wiped out because they walked off-post with their entire army.
For example, Ikko had 5 provinces and had a huge stack that came my way (Uesegui).
He was followed by any enemy (Sak..?) who took all his bases, which had been left vacant.
He took my town after a big fight then went back to reclaim his bases. He died and a huge clan was wiped out.

I am finding that major clans are disappearing very early not because of lack of income, but by some other circumstances.
I believe that a garrison script like MTW2 or an auto garrison for low-level forts as in ETW would make the game more enjoyable.

Why can't I download any of the attachments? Am i failing in some way, cause when i click on them I get an empty screen or get a 403 forbidden error. Also right click save as doesnt work either.

[MRinfidel]

what do you mean by what happened to the garrison? in my campaign that i'm playing the garrision sizes are decent (what makes up your garrisons and what would you consider the original size)?

[Rinsui]

A very simple question: while ship crews seem to form up significantly better than in previous versions - are ships actually sinkable now? I remember putting a hundred cannonballs into a bow kobaya until it finally wavered and fled; but it never sank!

[bobinpants]

Can someone please upload it to some site since its so small so i can download it? Would really appreciate it.

[twp127]

slow page hence double post. I even checked if there was a post before making the second.

[twp127]

Same here can't download on the top link or attachments.
When i click on them i go to an all-grey page with a little white dot in the middle.
and waiting 10mins on grey page doesn't produce results either.
Perhaps external link is needed cause of the long period of daily disturbances on twcenter.

Delete this post please, made a noob misstake again -.- lol!!!

Hi there, yes they are sinkable, i do not know were exact a ball need to be hit exactully to gain a good sinking hit or how many cannons balls needs to be hitted to make em sunk. But yes they do sink dont worry

Another thing to clear things up. Remember that those cannon balls at those times arent the one of the biggest calibers like in the 1700 or 1800 ship of a line

But i havent checked up historicly what those Nanban or Blackships used for sizes of there cannons tho, But i do not believe they had heavy once or the greater explosive black powder at that year era. So maybe that sums up a little bet!?

To counter the AI's stupidity, garrisons should either be larger or auto-default should favor defenders more.

Why is that I do much better with autoresulter when attacking a city?
I mean WAY better.

The few additional garrison units are appreciated.

But to fix the problem of AI's getting wiped out, we need to something more.

I propose that the Autoresulter more strongly favor the defender.

[ellwoodis]

Why can't I trade with my best allies?
I have horse, iron and wood.
Date is my ally through marriage and alliance.
They won't trade via land route for no price under 50,000.
Why is this?

I had indifferent trade partners who weren't importing any resource. I started trade for under 1000.

Can you make any heads or tails of this problem?

I find that overall, even with open imports, it's very difficult to start trade with any faction.
I get "this is unacceptable" unless I offer sky-high prices of over 40,000 koku.

Friendliness seems to have nothing to do with it.

AI seems to aggressive towards me.
I have 3 provinces as Uesegui.
I did declare war on Sak..?
They had 3 allies.
I had 5 different AI's declare war on me.
AI Superalliances?

[KERA_AK]

AI hostility towards human seems to be a bit high. Playing on hard.
I have 3 territories as Uesegui and 6 major AI's and 1 minor attacking.
I tried to keep large aishi stacks to avoid the large eat small logic.
Nevertheless, I will have to quit this game with all the stacks wandering around.
Why can't they attack the neighbors that they are hostile too?
I'm nowhere near realm divide, but it feels like it.

Hi there i usely dont write this things, But dunno why others are getting such starting campaigns.

I´m playing as Otoma and are in turn 62 right now.

My Allias are: Sagara, Date, Chosobake.

Trades: Satomi, Sagara, Tsutsui, Date, Chosobake, Takaoka.

Enemies are: Ikko Ikki, Honmo, Hojo, Ouchi, Mori, hatano, and by misstake Tokugawa and Imagawa, because i wanted to take the last Trade nod in the upper right corner for IRON! Didnt bother to reload i just said sure let it be thats way, other ways i would have become traders with this two clans also

I have 7 Provinces, All trade nods on the map. Large armies and large fleets and 4-5 Nanban ships.

If the AI isnt doing to much blockades i do rechive betwin 3000 or 6000 every turn or summit.

So far for me everything is going pretty well and i enjoy this struggle. The only few bad parts i can think of i guess, are the CA latelast patch bugs that they havent fixed with the Sea units and the buged "cannons" on the Nanban ship . And ingame about that the other allias or trader partners should atleast help up some how to lift off the Trade blockades at there harbors or on the strings a bet more, thats would been more helpfull to gain much more money,

as it as happend that i become bankcrypt 2 times due to heavly blockades as the enemy using quite alot of boats, and so do i lol

Anything then that, Allias works Trade works for me, AI even asking me to become allias also paying me to become a trade partner.. Havent find out any bad parts of that in my campaign atleast.

Catch ya later cheers for great improvments, cant wait till the full release Darthy and the final minor tunnings and secrets and suprises that comes out in the end

Be well everyone, back to WAR!
